I'm not a huge TKTS person, but aren't the tickets at TKTS generally more than from TDF?
Yes. The highest price TDF charges is $47. Tickets purchased through TKTS are discounted a certain percentage (usually 50%, though sometimes as little as 20%) from their face value. So, a $147 ticket purchased at 50% off through TKTS would be $74, plus a few bucks in service charges.
I generally used TDF for Off-Broadway, where the discounts are usually much better (most Off-Broadway shows are in the $25-30 price range). For Broadway, I tend to either do rush or, occasionally, splurge on TKTS. Although occasionally you can luck into a very good Broadway ticket through TDF--I did A Doll's House, Part 2 and ended up in the center orchestra on the aisle. |
